The radio silence from local politicians since the Preliminary hearings into the Public Inquiry into goldmining has been deafening.
Not one political representative from any Party in West Tyrone made a contribution at the Preliminary hearing in March, instead leaving it up to honest citizens to make well researched representations.
In the face of their workshy chicanery I have written to the Northern Ireland Audit Office to alert them to the huge waste of public funds around the now legally dubious public inquiry. Wasting public funds is morally repugnant at any time, never mind a time of need.
There is another "need" however. The gravy train every MLA, MP and Cllr is riding needs pulled up pronto. Grifting in a dream like state the no show reps believe themselves too big to fail whilst under the protection of a corrupt British establishment. That's a dangerous place for any Nationalist, Unionist or Alliance politician to find themselves regardless of their mandate.
